Whiskey General

Whiskey General is a collaborative music project led by British musician, singer, and songwriter Jay Serra, co-founder of The Juice (aka Kasai). A veteran of international tours and indie music productions, Jay has supported acts as varied as The Doves, Magistrate, Ms Dynamite, Idlewild and Scouting For Girls. With Whiskey General, Jay wanted to highlight an overlooked pool of talent. He believes that the traditional rock star no longer exists. Instead the future lies with DIY artists, artists who are not confined or defined by genre, and who believe in the stripped-back power of a raw idea on a guitar or piano, rather than the over-production of manufactured pop and rock. Jay’s first track, 'Truth And Lies' was a collaboration with fellow musos and touring vets, Bob Moore and Rich Merrett. His second release, ‘Shotgun’, is in collaboration with Jack Evans and Rich Merrett was a labour of love that involved artists from Los Angeles, Philadelphia and Toronto. He co-produced it with Jordan Brown. His latest and upcoming release 'The Evil Eye', is his collaboration with London guitarist Maw. With cross of vibes between Sabbath, Nineties Grunge and a theme observed by so many countries around the world, the powerful song promises to pack a punch.

The smiling ones with wide eyes, holding bouquets?
They'll crucify you, softly sweep you away
Surrounded by the goons with good things to say?
Jinxing, abusing every move that you make

Evil Eye
Stand and testify
I wish to recognize this alien 'fore she taints my life with fire
She
She is the ill at ease
A vicious deity, a connoisseur of non-conformity

She lends a hand when millions quietly protest
A price to pay when you are tasting success
Preys on the ready and the not quite yet
Retreating when you fully fail and regress

This is why
I'm so tongue tied
Sick and terrified of this absurd creation, Tell no lie
She
She puts the ill at ease
A vicious deity, a connoisseur of non-conformity
But when your time comes, that's when, your time is up again my friends
You're better off to face, than run, you'll live to tell the tale again
